Zach proposed to Andrea last October on the water at sunset after 5 years of dating.\u00a0 Maumee Bay at sunset was the perfect tribute to that night.\u00a0 While waiting for the sun to set for those amazing Sunset Engagement photos, we started their sunset engagement session by taking photos near the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.maumeebaylodge.com\/\">Maumee Bay Lodge and Conference Center<\/a>. Although we didn&#8217;t get the beautiful sunset they had that night, the rain clouds kept the sunset moody.\u00a0 <a href=\"http:\/\/www.shoresandislands.com\/\">Lake Erie<\/a> was even a bit hazy
